Default Indoor backup generator

A friend of mine called, today. He would like to have a natural gas
generator, for power cuts. Due to crime, he'd like the generator in the
cellar.

Said generator should run:
Upright freezer
Side by side refrigerator
some lights
computer (he works at home, online)
furnace / winter
One or two window AC / summer.

The natural gas hookup won't be dificult. He's got an electrician to do the
power cable hook up. I've never heard of a generator in the cellar. I can
envision noise, heat, and having to pipe the exhaust out. Combustion air
isn't a big deal, the house is drafty.

What do we need to know, to make this project go along?
